BenuU Wa "sfitisfnciory to Both Fumbled Atrociou-ly Because of Brings' Bail Paminz--Searly Hau Hie Gnmo Badly. Iowa City, Oct. hundred enthusiastic Normalites and 1,200 Hawkeyes saw the University defeat the State normal by a score of 16 to 0 The score was satisfactory to both Iowa and State normal.

In the first halt the teachers were completely overrun by the close massing of the tandem and the fine interference in the filing end plays Only a few times by the new men in the back field being out of position in the formations did the downs go to three. Iowa was held once for down in the half and lacked twice Iowa fumbled atrociously because of Brigga' bad passing. Once on a ciuaiterback kick s-ignal being sent the ball went high over Williams' head. Wieland took the laurels lor offensive play, with Buckley a close second. After three minutes' Dlav Iowa reached the Normal goal by swift end runs and tandem smashes and sent Terrell over the line.

Terrell kicked goal. In four minutes more of Dlaj Smith was sent over the line on a guards-back play. On the next march to the teachers' goal Brlggs made a poor pass vvithm live yards of the line The Normals were forced to punt to Williams in the center of the field Then the Iowa backs, Siberts and Hobert, formed interference for him that took him through the teachers' line to the goal. In the second half Captain Williams put his team on the defensive, kicking almost as soon as the ball came into his keeping. The Normal used Iowa's tandem taught them Coach Edson and piowed through Hollenbreck and Hobert for repeated gains.

The teachers were in much better condition physically than Iowa and the 'varsity was fortunate in keeping tbp play in the Normal's territory by kicking. Seerley ran his team slowly and snowed bad judgment in frequently abandoning his assault on Iowa's left, where gains certain. Wolf and Wallace earned the ball well for the Normal The line up: Iowa.

The llarengo eleven was unable at any timu advance the ball Tvith any regularity and Uie West High goal was never in dangei. The game was called at 2 15 when Raney made the kick off, which was returned live lards by Lyons Whiting made a gam ot hve jards through the line and the ball was lost to Stapleton of uie M.irengo eleven on the next plaj. Rat- clilf, ttho played the star game for his team, made a gain of three jards through tne guard, but on the next play the High secured Hie ball on a fumble Butler then made a run around end lor eighteen yaids, Lyons was put through tiie center lor five more, But- lei. Whitms and Lyons then earned the ball to i i ten yards of the goal, it was lecovered by Marengo, but on Maiengo's first play the ball was knocked out of the quarter's fiancis and passed over the Marengo goal, wiiere a player tell on it, thus constituting a touch-back, which gave the West High team -ts first score of two points. The ilaiengo eleven was permitted to carry the ball out to the twentj -five-yard line where a free kick was made and Lyons was downed in his tracks on the West Higti twenty-yard line.

Both teams Uien indulged in some punting and finally the ball was given to Butler, Whiting Damon and Lyons, each' of whom made gams, until Butler was pushed over for tfco first touchdown after sixteen minutes of play. Smith kicked goal. Ou the next kick-off Marengo kicked the ball over the West High's goal and Smith succeeded in returning it fifteen yards. Captain JButler tJien took the ball with alarming frequency and the pigskin was soon nearing Marengo's goal, and Whit- ins made the second touchdown with six more minutes of play. The goal kick was missed by Srmtfc.

The second half witnessed but one touchdown, which was made by Damon. The West Higfi boys were unable to make a larger score io the second half because of fumbles at critical times, and while the Marengo eleven at no time sighted the West High goal, it had the ball just long enough during the half to keep its opponents from running up a larger score The game had progressed but a short time until interest in it began to wane, as the Marengo boys were outclassed. They did not have the men to do the work. The two star players of tihe day were Butler for the "West High and Ratcliff for Marengo. Ratcliff was suffering from a sore shoulder and the game was delajed frequently on his account The line-up: West High.

Shnwed Iletipr Team Work ni Olil'imprn Not the West Hlgh-Marengo came the Pastime-Highland Park game. This contest resulted in a score of 0 to 0 and for a game so early in the season was a very fierce contest.

The Highland Park eleven showed much the best team work and will be heard from before the season is over. The Pastime eleven was ihe heavier and. Individually, in doubtless stronger than its opponents. The Pastimes have been organized scarcely two weeks, and were first lined' up Fridav night The eleven is composed of old-time football plavers, well known In Des Molnes and the colleges of the state as some of them have been identified with the leading college elevens of the state in former years. The Highland Park cautain won the toss and Garrison made the kick oft for Highland Park.

The back men for the Pastimes brought the ball back, but it soon came Into Highland Park's possession, and Miller made a run of ninety yards for a touchdown and the rooters were jubilant It developed, however that Miller had run out of bounds and the ball was returned to the Highland Park forty-yard line. Allen made ten yards and on the next play Durand broke through and tackled Flammant for a bie loss. Allen then punted thirty-five yards The Pastimes made no gains and en' deavored to punt on the tea-yard line, hat a poor pass was made and the ball rolled up against the goal cost. The ball was brought out fifteen yards, where a punt was made past the center of the field, and the ball was then brought back the fifteen yards which had been allowed the Pastimes in which to make the Web The ball was then constantly changing sides and seemed to be impartial in this matter. The Highland Park eleven would make a short rally and gain, only to lose the ball on a fumble or off-side play, and the Pastime eleven would go through the same operation, and the first half ended with the ball in the latter's possession on its fifteen-yard line.

The second half was but a repetition of the first. Highland Park made one good run, but was penalized because of a forward pass. McGuire, the big guaro. was hurt and his place was taken by Savage. Breese was hurt and Girard substituted.

Neither side could make consistent gains and the second half ended with the ball in Highland Park's possession on its thirty-five-yard Hue The Pastimes were not in condition and had not learned a system of signals, and lost the ball frequently on that account The Highltnd Park eleven plays a fast game. The oEiciels for this game were Bacon, umpire, and Coggeshall, releree. H. P. C.

The game was qUite slow, but was interspersed with many brilliant smashes and end runs. The team work of Still college was loose, many fumbles marking their play. However, in the latter part of the second half they took a brace and carried the ball to Ames' thirty yard line. Ames' team work, while superior to that of Still, showed lack of snap and ginger; the backs were in starting, as also was the whole team in lining up. Much time was thus lost Coye Dishler at left and right halts were easily the stars of the Ames team.

Pearce, who entered the game in the second half, made many brilliant plays for Still. The halves were twenty and twenty-five minutes in length.

Herman P. Williams of Jefferson has been an interested spectator of the football practice this week He was one of the 'varsity's best tackles a generation back and is much interested in the success ot the team this year. in the university he successfully combined football, scholarship and the ministry. One Saturday he had a particularly hard game. As those were the days when umpires and referees wore gogg.es and the players were accustomed to carry divers brickbats about their persons.

Rev. Williams came out of the game with two black ees. He ba'hca them as best he could and the next Sunday morning appeared before his congregation at Atallssa. After his sermon, which was upon the subject of "Brotherly Love." one of the old ladles of his flock came up to him with anxiety written targe over her countenance. "Really, Rev.

Williams," she said solicitously, "I know you are studying too hard. Do be careful about it or jou will lose your eyesight" Otlnmwa 84, Iturlincton 0. 'Ottumwa.

Cambridge, Oct 5--Harvard defeated Bates college todaj by a score of 10 to 6, the visitors score made owing to a.

In tSie first half Harvard played fairly well anj scored two touchdowns at four minute intervals bs ttie good end running of Ristine and the line plunging of Mifflm. On account of the inexperience of Matthews, io was put in at quarterback by Harvard in tile second half, the play was loose, Harvard scoring but a good run ov Knowles and letting Bates cross her goal line. For Harvard, Ristine and Cutts did the best work and Moody made most of the gams tor Bates. After the game Reid had the 'varsity line up against the fresCimen, so dissatisfied was he with their loose playing.

HARBACH-HARRIS COMPANY SIXTH AND LOCUST Easy Payments HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS ORGAN'ZATION FORMED IN IOWA SIGN. Or. A. A. Enipe, of the State CiiiTorgity, FrfcautiniiA and AVhich Would KeuioTd Utilizer and Enhance Value of Athletics.

DR. A A K.NIPE, Representatives from seventeen. high schools in Iowa have met together and formulated rules practically controlling their athletics. It is a most hopeful sign for the advancement of legitimate and well conducted athletics. The rules them- iselvea are good, so far as they go, and deal mainly with the class standing of the men playing on the teams.

That the rules have been trained with a view to the doing away of football is doubtful, in spite of the statements that such was the purpose of those who drew them up. Heretofore athletics have been conducted haphazard by the boys themselves, who, with, youthful enthusiasm, did the best they could, and it is surprising that they have done so well. At best there has been a number of the teaching force in partial charge, but until now there has been nq official recognition of the several tporc-j by the high school authorities. The time tas cassed. when the school boards can Sose their eyes to the existing conditions and it is to be regretted seriously that all the schools have not co-operated with a view to regulating their athletics in much the same way as is done at the universities.

Constant protests from parents and se- nous accidents resulting from lack in training has made it imperative that something be done, and, at last a. little legislation ias been effected. I have.been impressed by tho fact that those whose duty it is to look after the welfare of the various school interests have either been indifferent to athletics 'or from inherent laziness or ignorance have uut off looking the condition tairly in the face. If outdoor sports are a bad thing for schoolboys they 'should be abolished at once, if, however, they have some value, then those in charge are doing but half their duty. The control of athletics in the high schools is a serious question that demands the thoughtful consideration all interested.

That there is merit in all the games we will not discuss, and also that there is more than the element of piay in athletics may not be denied. How, then, may we conduct our games so that the bad effects may bs eliminated? Space will not permit of a detailed anal! sis of all the games, but some suggestions may sielp. For the general government of athletics the rules adopted by the c'onference colleges of the middle west would serve the high schools as an excellent model. These rules are the result of careful study by members of the several faculties wfio had no ends to serve and kept the best interests of athletics constantly in mind. Tie dangers of football, however, are tiie burning questions and the constant protests have at last stimulated to partial action those who for jears have failed to recognize their obligations.

Under ifie existing circumstances dansers do exist and the wonder is that the serious accidents are so few. No high school boy should be permitted to in practice, wSjo has not been examined by a phvsician. Physical fitness is the first thing to be insisted upon and no one should be allowed to play who exhibits the slightest sign of functional weakness. The head of every school should look to it that this is done in every instance or do away with the game at once A coach should be put in charge of each team who is interested not only in producing a winning eleven, but who realizes the responsibilities of his position sufficiently to be certain ttiat his men are trained to stand the physical strain. He should also recognize the Ideals (and they BEST FOR THE BOWELS Ir yon Itaven't a rccntar healthy movement of ths bowels every day, yotTro 111 or will be.

I realize that a scheme entails experience and may be for that reason impractical at present, but it is by far the best method and tfce only one practical under existing circumstances. I see no reason, however, wihy the game cannot be modified to meet the high- school conditions.

Chances Might Blade. To change the rules governing football at once precipitates technical discussion, which is obviously out of place in article. Alterations could be made-, however, that would avoid much of the danger and still retain the essentials of the game intact. A rule requiring seven men on the line would at once do away with massed plays on the guards or tackles. Much of the piling up in, scrimmages would then be eliminated ana a more open game developed.

Again, rule requiring all 'plays to the directed outside of the tackles while the defense retained their present positions would also have the desired effect. The present method of tackling' might well be altered and means taken to develop kicking. It is most important, however, that those who have charge should acquire more certain knowledge of the game itself and that more thought be given the details of physical training. To abolish the game at once or to make, rules that are practically prohibitive, is undoubtedly the easier way, but hard'iy just. From the recent action of these seventeen schools there is every reason to believe that the athletic situation will be met squarely and dealt with in the same intelligent way that has characterized the administration of other departments.

Kmpe's system of play. Every effort possible, is being made to strengthen the back field, particularly to find swift runners to succeed to the places held last year by Edson and ton. Wilkms of the Glenwood fiigh school team is showing running- abilities that promise great things. Wednesday he went through the scrub's line on a tackle back rush and dodged and sprinted past four backfield players to the goal, fifty yards away, causing the coach and candidates present at the ipractice to remember the wonderful performances of in that line last year. Wieland, another player is being tried for half, has also been makirig long end gains on the scrubs.

Buckley, who was tried at tackle earlier to the season, has also been brought back to the backfield and is being alternately tried at half and fullback. He shows fair speed and great agility. Captain Williams is also being played at right Irklf, while Terrell takes his place at quarter. Williams is the swiftest man" on the team after Wilkins, but so far- the team is not strengthened enough by his playing at half to compensate for his loss at quarter. All of the backfield candidates besides Williams and Walters, the old members of the team, shy at tackling the runners This is being cured by practice in running down punts, which consumes from half to three-quarters of an hour at each practice.

Then men are lined in a long'row and numbered from one to ten. As each number is called, four or five men chase down the field for the punt, which is caught by three players, who attempt to return with it. This shying at tackling is not worrying the coach any, as practically all of the fine tacklers of the 'varsity have exhibited this trait at first. Joe Warner used to turn pale almost when he came near enough to a runner so that he should have tackled him, and Morton was- most bashful about pitching into an qpposing runner. The guards-back play is being used with great success in the practice this week on the scrubs Gains of five and ten yarids are common with the play, and rarely are the scrubs able to avoid a two-yard gain at least.

The Improvement is largely due to the brilliant of Smith at right guard. He is going through the opposing lines like a hurricane and in every line buck Is right with the runner, pushing him along. Smith is a freshman from Cedar Rapfds. and weighs-200 pounds, being the heaviest man on the team. The improvement shown In the practice since makes the university confident of winning the same with the State.
